Beating Mexicans and Fox News Reporters

Yesterday, with little or no warning, LAPD officers attacked unarmed Fox News personnel as well as men, women, children and the elderly gathered peacefully in Los Angeles--during the May 1 immigration rallies.

Fox? You know, guys—O'Reilly, Hannity, Gibson, Ailes and Murdoch. You know, the 24-hour-a-day "elevated threat level" network? Those LA officers should have been carrying Fox employees on their shoulders, offering them water or massages.

Instead, they demonstrated their eagerness to beat even allies. (Other than a thug, who would strike a TV cameraman and female reporter holding a microphone?) Have you seen the footage? Those cops look like robots who worked themselves into a nelly frenzy.

R. Scott Moxley’s award-winning investigative journalism has touched nerves for two decades. An angry congressman threatened to break Moxley’s knee caps. A dirty sheriff promised his critical reporting was irrelevant and then landed in prison. Corporate crooks won’t take his calls. Murderous gangsters mad-dogged him in court. The U.S. House of Representatives debated his work. Pusillanimous cops have left hostile messages using fake names. Federal prosecutors credited his stories for the arrest of a doctor who sold fake medicine to dying patients. And a frantic state legislator literally caught sleeping with lobbyists sprinted down state capital hallways to evade his questions in Sacramento.
